'Talk less and do more': Lowe's CEO Marvin Ellison says it's time to step up diversity efforts
Lowe's CEO Marvin Ellison spoke at a virtual event hosted by the National Retail Federation.
Ellison became the chief executive of Lowe's two years ago and kicked off a company-wide turnaround effort. He was in the midst of overhauling the retailer's website and adding to his leadership team when the pandemic struck. Over the past few months, Lowe's has had to restock shelves, fulfill curbside pickup orders, install plexiglass and encourage social distancing as it kept its doors open as an essential retailer.
Ellison said his life experiences have fueled a commitment to diversity in the corporate world. When he arrived to Lowe's, the company had only eight Black employees at the vice president level or higher — a number he was determined to increase.He said Lowe's now has two Black executive vice presidents, two Black senior vice president and 11 Black vice presidents.
